Page 8 July 27, 2017 City Council from front page a perception out there that the tunnel was approved or things of that nature,” Awad said. “We just wanted to make sure that the public knows that it’s not quite approved yet, but that was the perception we were getting. Even though the perception is out there, we’re just beginning now.” Shadbehr said the confusion may have stemmed from Space X being able to successfully pull a permit for a test tunnel on its own property in the parking lot. Shadbehr clarified that the proposed tunnel and the one currently taking place on Space X’s private property are two very different things. “For example, what they’re doing right now under their parking lot was exempt from any CEQA inspection,” Shadbehr said. Councilwoman Angie Reyes English raised some questions, beginning with the entire proposal in general seemingly coming out of nowhere. “This is really surprising to me that we’re here tonight discussing [this] out of the blue and not to say we’re not in support of Space X or feel that they shouldn’t move forward--however, perception is everything,” she said. “I’ve been hearing about a news article, the Mayor visiting. How coincidental that you were there and now we’re here.” After being asked if CEQA findings would be available to the public, Shadbehr answered that an initial study had been completed about a month ago and it is currently being reviewed through consultants. “There is a whole laundry list of activities happening at this time,” he said. “Engineering is reviewing their plans and calculations, the fire department is reviewing the fire prevention control plan, South Coast Air Quality Management District issues have to be addressed with regards to ventilation and we’re also in contact with all the utility companies.” Shadbehr added that his office sent out a notice to utility companies two months ago making them aware of the project and asking for any concerns that they might have. There are plans for meetings soon with both Shadbehr’s office and Space X to address any issues those utility companies may have with the project. Once all concerns and approvals have been met by the various municipal agencies and departments, then an encroachment permit will be issued for a City Council vote. As for this initial agreement, all four Council members voted to approve the agreement. Councilman Nilo Michelin was not in attendance. • Call Now: 844-295-2777 Are You Still Paying Too Much For Your Medications?

Should Los Angeles Football Fans Choose the Rams as Their Team? half of the season last year. The Rams are 13 years removed from the playoffs and 14 years removed from their last winning season. Now is the time to show that they are on course for a future playoff appearance. The team may not have what it takes to beat out their divisional opponents this season, but they can certainly begin to make a mark on the league and on the city of Los Angeles before another team bolts in and steals their thunder. • – Asixlion@earthlink.net By Adam Serrao Since the Rams packed up their bags and headed west for Los Angeles, it has been no secret that they have failed to incite excitement within their newfound fan base. A far cry from “The Greatest Show on Turf” that used to call St. Louis home, the Los Angeles Rams have been subpar so far, to say the least. Whether it has been management moves, coaching decisions, or simply just a roster full of bad players, the Rams debuted in Los Angeles with a 4-12 season last year, failing to excite a city that has been salivating for football ever since the Rams (and the Raiders) left after the 1994 regular season. This year’s Rams team is obviously still not a Super Bowl contender. They should be better, however, and in doing so will manage to give Los Angeles fans more of a reason to feel proud to enjoy football once again. Last year’s Rams fan base crowded the Coliseum in Los Angeles for many reasons, but none of those reasons were because the Rams were actually good at football. Whether it was because it was the first year that the game was back in L.A. or simply because Sundays are meant for watching the NFL, Los Angeles had the second best home attendance in the entire league last season. Ineffectiveness has its own way of keeping fans away, especially when a second team (the Chargers) makes itself available to the masses and moves into the area. Rams fans shouldn’t scare easily, though, because this year’s team plans on being much better the second time around. This year’s Rams roster could boast as many as 10 new starters when the NFL season begins. Those new starters will be most easily recognized on the offensive side of the ball and specifically under center. Though quarterback Jared Goff eventually made a few starts once head coach Jeff Fisher got fired, he didn’t start the season as the main signal-caller of the team. This year should bring with it added responsibility for Goff, which will either make or break the quarterback’s future with the team. Goff was in an awkward spot last season with uncertainty surrounding the entire organization and a cross-country move that had just taken place. This year, Goff is in charge and it’s time for the former number one overall pick the in draft to take control of the franchise. Not only will many of the starters be new to the team, but Sean McVay is entering his first year as a head coach in the NFL. McVay has tabbed new wide receiver Robert Wood as a perfect fit for his offensive system. Woods used to play at USC, so at least he’ll be used to the scenery. He has yet to catch more than 65 passes in a season, but seems destined to do so in his first year in Los Angeles. The Rams also beefed up their offensive line this offseason, which was a major liability one season ago. Look for Toddy Gurley and the running game to become much better this year than last with the additions of left tackle Andrew Whitworth and center John Sullivan. Rookie wide receiver Cooper Kupp and second-year tight end Tyler Higbee will also look to add depth to a passing game that lost Kenny Britt, but still looked absolutely anemic last year on the football field. On the defensive side of the ball the Rams have welcomed in outside linebacker Connor Barwin, who most recently played with the Philadelphia Eagles but had his best season in Houston under new Rams defensive coordinator Wade Phillips. Phillips is also bringing over Kayvon Webster from the Denver Broncos to compete with E.J. Gaines for the starting spot at cornerback opposite Trumaine Johnson. Any addition to a defense that is already lethal and features the likes of Aaron Donald and Robert Quinn is a good move. The defensive side of the ball won’t necessarily be a problem that the Rams will struggle with this season. It was no question that the Rams needed to shake things up on the roster after a four-win season in a very competitive NFC West division. Los Angeles has done its part to strengthen the roster with new coaches McVay and Phillips plus a relatively new offensive line. That same offensive line is what will be instrumental to the team’s success and Goff’s growth as an NFL quarterback. As the line goes, so goes Gurley, the running game and Goff--with what little passing attack he presumably has. New players don’t necessarily mean more wins for the Rams. A starting job for Goff doesn’t mean that he’ll necessarily be good either. But a fresh start for everyone involved should only help to improve what was an agonizing second Score BIG With DISH Deals! 190 Channels Now only ... $49./99 mo. for 24 months ADD HIGH-SPEED INTERNET $14./95 /mo.
